"Alright, let's get'em!" Then Conrad makes a feint at the one he points to! [ooc]Clever feint and Get'em v. Red

Bluff: 1d20 + 15 + 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 15 + (4) + 1 = 27

Conrad tries focusing his friends on the one target...

Twich sends some magic missiles flying into green.

I think there's a clear line of sight through the door from Twich to green...

damage: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 2, 3) + 3 = 9

1d20 ⇒ 19

Twich peppers one of the Striders with missiles.

Three of the striders rush Azara, the alpha disappears behind the mound.

Attack 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (6) + 12 = 18 vs KAC
Damage 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 - kinetic

Attack 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22 vs KAC
Damage 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13 - kinetic

Attack 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17 vs KAC
Damage 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9 - kinetic

Only one connects!

The Brigadier sighs at all the people in the way of her shot as she takes aim with her coil rifle.

Attack 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27
Damage 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (1, 6) + 5 = 12

Scott takes a shot at Green with the Thunderstrike Sonic Pistol while calling a Gettem on it.

v EAC: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 (add one for the gettem)
sonic: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Scotty indicates another Strider for the team to get, but sadly doesn't land a shot.

Conrad backs up, maintaining his guard. It keeps him from egging his party mates on, but he tries to snap a shot at one of them ATK v. Green: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22 for FIRE: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

pew, pew, pew!

Three more little pellets of magical energy slam into green.

3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 1, 1) + 3 = 9

”Where did the alpha go?” Daata keeps his eyes peeled for it while he pressed the attack on the chosen target.

Move Perception vs alpha, standard attack green; AI attack green

Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21

Attack vs Green KAC (get ‘em): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 2 = 16
Damage (S): 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Attack vs Green EAC (get ‘em): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 2 = 10
Damage (E): 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

"Oh no...you have thrown me right in the middle of a stingerbush patch," Azara says in a flat monotone as the stridermanders pile on him.

He draws down his stellar mote, the bit of solid light becoming a glowing ankh then obeys Scotty and Gets Green.

Solar Weapon plus Get 'Em: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 1 = 13
Slashing plus Photon Attuned plus Get'Em: 2d6 + 1d4 + 9 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (5, 2) + (2) + 9 + 1 + 1 = 20

Conrad zaps the stridermander.

Twich peppers the poor stridermander.

Daata can't see the alpha anywhere, but does know it speared off and behind the mound. Daata and his sidekick miss the Stridermander combatants

Azara misses them

***

Three of the striders rush Azara, the alpha disappears behind the mound.

Attack 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15 vs KAC
Damage 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 - kinetic

The Brigadier takes aim with her rifle again.

Attack 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29
Damage 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (4, 1) + 5 = 10

The foe is slain by a well-placed shot.

"Oof," Azara says as he takes another hit.

He starts to maneuver around the targets, getting into position for what is coming.

Solar Weapon: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23
Slashing plus Photon Attuned: 2d6 + 1d4 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (5, 4) + (2) + 9 + 1 = 21

Photon Attuned 2

Most likely ducked down behind the large mound it was sitting on Scotty replied to Daata.

He then calls Get'em on Orange and attempts to shoots it.

v EAC: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 1 = 12
sonic: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Scotty Tracy has no luck.

"That's it, we got'em on the ropes!"

Get'em on orange, with a shot at orange.

ATK: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 = 15 DMG if hit: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Conrad issues some more singed fur and encourages his companions to do the same!

Looking to help Azara with flanking, the izalguun rears onto his hind legs to his full towering height, dropping the axe to his meatier middle arm for a devastating swing at orange.

Move switch posture, standard attack orange; AI attack orange.

Attack vs Orange KAC (get ‘em): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 6 + 2 = 24
Damage (S): 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Attack vs Orange EAC (get ‘em): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 7 + 2 = 20
Damage (E): 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Daata slams the Strider, and then the drone finishes it off.

The 'Alpha' reappears rushing in from the pile.
Attack 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16 vs KAC
Damage 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 - kinetic

Yellow moves in and attacks as well
Attack 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15 vs KAC
Damage 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 - kinetic

A large shape unmasks as it falls from the roof and bites at an unsuspecting Azara - a rather enormous Stridermander, the REAL alpha!

Attack 1d20 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 18 + 2 = 24 vs KAC
Damage 2d6 + 14 ⇒ (5, 4) + 14 = 23 - kinetic

The Brigadier takes aim with her rifle again.

Attack 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24
Damage 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (5, 1) + 5 = 11

Adrovor points his mostly busted arm at the stridermander and launches three firey bolts of unead hatred .

”Get out of that vice, Azara!” Daata tries to clear some breathing room for the solarian while his drone fires on the alpha.

Move AI, standard attack yellow; AI full attack alpha.

Attack vs Yellow KAC: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Damage (S): 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Attack vs Alpha EAC (full, get ‘em): 1d20 + 7 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 2 - 4 = 8

Damage (E): 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

"OOOFF!" Azara exclaims as he gets hit out of nowhere. That one almost moved beyond being painful to actually being damaging.

"This one big enough for you, Brigadier?" he calls out as he slips between the two smaller stridermanders.

"You got here just in time big guy. BURN!"

He releases the pent up photonic energy built up in his system in a massive burst of solar heat.

Supernova (DC17 Refl for Half Fire Damage): 7d6 + 2 ⇒ (3, 2, 3, 3, 6, 5, 4) + 2 = 28

That gets all the stridermanders and none of the starfinders.

Daata and friend lay down fire - two shots land!

There is a flash!
R Ref 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10
Y Ref 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
B Ref 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16
Wow that hurt - well done! :)

The two stridermanders are obliterated in the blast.

New errata today. The onyl thing that affects Conrad is the price of grenades, time to stop hoarding!

Conrad makes like he's going to bum rush the stridermander, but then pulls up urging the party on.

Clever Feint: 1d20 + 15 + 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 15 + (3) + 1 = 29 If that bluff works, it's flatfooted until the end of my round 4. Also, Get'em!

((Ah - there is a wall - In that case, Scott would activate 'Hyper' for an extra move action and dash into the room in order to 'getit' and shoot))

Conrad fakes out the creature - which means Scotty jets through without drawing its ire!

Twich sends another batch of magic missiles at blue.

I think there's line of sight through the door.

damage: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (2, 2, 1) + 3 = 8

The thing is hit with more magical bolts.

It looks desperate and ANGRY as it wails on Azara

A large shape unmasks as it falls from the roof and bites at an unsuspecting Azara - a rather enormous Stridermander, the REAL alpha!

Attack 1d20 + 18 - 4 ⇒ (19) + 18 - 4 = 33 vs KAC

Attack 1d20 + 18 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 18 - 4 = 29 vs KAC

Daata squeezes against the wall to slip into the room and swings at the massive stridermander, his drone attacking alongside him.

Move to space (no squeezing penalty due to feat), standard attack; AI attack. Assuming another get 'em coming.

Attack vs Blue KAC: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 = 8
Damage (S): 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Attack vs Blue EAC (full, get ‘em): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 2 = 27

Scott calls GETEM on the massive stridermander then You got this Azara - Inspiring Boost to restore 14 stamina to Azara.

Azara is rocked by the massive blows he takes. The first one clearly hurts him and the second only adds to it.

"A Stridermander Alpha"
"A Solarian."
"One will rise and one will fall."

He says, gritting his teeth. He gives a nod of appreciation to Scott as the Skittermander gives him the will to fight on.

Solar Weapon plus Get 'Em: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 1 = 16
Slashing plus Get 'Em and PA: 2d6 + 1d4 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (6, 3) + (3) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 24

Scotty gives the encouragement, but Azara misses the blow

Twich again tries to magically daze the enemy.

"Holy crap! Why won't this thing just die already?!"

Conrad keeps trying to feint at just the right angle to make it bite and also make it easier to hit! Feint: 1d20 + 16 + 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 16 + (1) + 1 = 27 and Get'em[/ooc]

The creature shakes off the magic like water off a raincoat, the spell lacking the horsepower to impact such a beast.
Monster CR 5 or higher

Conrad manages to distract it.

The Alpha recognises the challenge ahead and keeps wailing on Azara.

Attack 1d20 + 18 - 4 ⇒ (14) + 18 - 4 = 28 vs KAC

Conrad, not much more help if he actually starts shooting, tries to keep up the unpredictable pattern: Feint: 1d20 + 16 + 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 16 + (2) + 1 = 29 And Get'em

The first blow the Alpha lands is not enough to take Azara out of the fight, but the second one is. The Solarian collapses to the floor, unconscious, but not dying.

Spending a Resolve to Stabilize.

Twich up!

Pew, pew, pew!

damage, magic missile: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 2, 3) + 3 = 11

ALLY DOWN! ALLY DOWN! Scott calls out. Hang in there Azara - I'll save you.[/b]

The Alpha now reaches out and attacks Daata!
